Playlist: Pitchfork’s Foray into Interactive Music

This week, after testing out Pitchfork’s first interactive music games – including some wandering of a virtual desert – we were inspired to create a Spotify playlist to commemorate the moment when one of the leading tastemakers took a break from reviewing recorded music and leapt into the new world of interactive music videogames.

We included some obvious ones such as Lana del Rey’s hit, “Video Games; Amy Winehouse’s final single, “Love is a Losing Game;” and a song from the Hunger Games soundtrack, as well as other selections with videogame culture references (think Legend of Zelda), plus an 8-bit music duo who make music with Game Boys.
